What is Brute Bonnet?¶

Brute Bonnet is a Scarlet exclusive Paradox Pokémon found in Area Zero. Paradox Pokémon are Pokémon that are exclusive to the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet game. They resemble pre-existing Pokémon but have different move sets and types. Scarlet Paradox Pokémon are Ancient whilst Violet’s are futuristic.

You will only be able to capture Paradox Pokémon once you’ve got access to Area Zero - the crater at the center of the Paldea Region. You’ll have access to this area once you’ve completed the three story paths:

• Victory Road
• Starfall Street
• Path of Legends

Once you’ve finished the story quest in Area Zero, you’ll also be able to return at any time by fast travelling to the Zero Gate.

How to Find & Catch Brute Bonnet¶

Brute Bonnet are pretty common and can be found in the open areas of the crater and in the cave area too! We found a couple hanging around Research Station No. 2. Depending on where you catch them, the Brute Bonnets will be anywhere from Lv 56 to 58. Sometimes they can be a bit stubborn so we like to use Ultra Balls to make extra sure we catch them!
